The 2011 amendment, effective July 1, 2011, provided that a voter who does not designate a party affiliation shall be deemed to have declined to designate a party affiliation. The 1995 amendment, effective April 6, 1995, substituted "a certificate of registration" for "an application" in Subsections A and B, and deleted former Subsections C and D relating to the contents of the application and the period of retention by the county clerk. The 1993 amendment, effective June 18, 1993, deleted "Affidavit of" preceding "Registration" in the section heading and "and sworn to" following "subscribed" in Subsection C, and substituted "certificate" for "affidavit" in the second sentence in Subsection D.
